Wardens Paul Hartrick, of Oconto Falls, and Gaven Brault, of Green Bay, responded to a complaint of two bucks locked at the horns. The wardens arrived and observed a large buck dragging a dead buck through the woods. Hartrick placed a catch pole on the buck’s antlers and pulled him to the ground. Brault then held the live buck down and Hartrick handed the catch pole to the reporting party to hang on to. Hartrick then used a saw to cut the dead buck’s antlers out of the entanglement. The large buck was then released with no apparent injuries.
Robert J. Nehm of Green Lake, a lifelong farmer, died on December 23rd at the age of 92. Robert was born on his parentsâ farm near Big Cedar Lake in the town of West Bend in 1928. The family raised Registered Holsteins on Bel Aura Farms since the 1960s. In 1990 Robertâs family moved to Green Lake, with his son Carl taking on a more active role on the farm.
Robert met and married his wife Kathleen, a native of West Allis, in 1960, and the two of them farmed together for 60 years. They raised five children.
He liked Allis Chalmers tractors and took pride in keeping them in working order himself. He was out working the fields and repairing equipment up until the last two weeks of his life.
